With the results of the 2020 Birth Photography Image Review from Birth Becomes Her right around the corner, everything is waiting with great anticipation to see which of our extraordinarily talented colleagues have made it into the top 10% of the contest, also known as the Artist’s Collection.
This year, BBH has secured a panel of 5 judges, of which, several familiar names:
Kathryn Johnson
Owner of Kathryn J Birth Stories, is an incredibly talented birth photographer based out of Dallas, Texas.
Next, the legendary
Kirsten Lewis
I snatched Kirsten Lewis’ bio from the Birth Becomes Her Image Review link, because no introduction made by me would be worthy enough of this inspiring photo-god: “a documentary family photographer based in Denver, Colorado however her work brings her all over the world, from New Zealand to Dubai, Brazil to Canada, Italy to Hawaii. Although she has been shooting for over twenty years, it was teaching on Creative Live that really brought her approach to documentary family photography to the forefront as a desirable alternative to the traditional family portrait. She has been mentoring photographers internationally not only within family photography, but a coach guiding them to find their own unique voice by embracing their personal experiences and encouraging them develop a personal point of view.” (Source: BBH 2020 Image Review)
Monet Nicole
I am so inspired by Monet Nicole. She got into birth photography long before I ever did, and at this point of her career has three gorgeous children of her own and has photographed over 400 birth stories! Wow! She is the co-founder of BBH.
Jennifer Mason
Jennifer Mason is the co-founder of BBH. I was so inspired by her power duo team work mentality with Monet years ago, and now she is a badass birth worker in Ann Arbor Michigan!
Kayla Gray
Kayla Gray is an extraordinary mother of 5 and birth photographer based out of Austin, Texas!
Scouring through the 2020 Image Review Gallery, I enjoyed voting for my favorite birth images from among my colleagues in BBH everyday until it closed.
And now we wait, we wait for the judges to thoughtfully leave feedback on each of the submitted images.
We wait to find out which images placed into the top 40%, 25%, 10%, or top 10.
